Key points
- Reports circulating in mid-May 2026 indicate Prince Andrew was not invited to Peter Phillips and Harriet Sperling’s wedding on June 6, 2026.

[Express article coverage cited in multiple outlets; see summary references below.]

[InStyle and Express summaries appear consistent on attendance expectations.]
